I haven't even opened it in a couple days. It's like they're trying to make it into Galaxy of Heroes, which ignores the fact that Strike Force exists and does that better.

My biggest problem is i'm stuck on the same battles for the lat week and a bit becuase just levels don't increase power enough to be able to beat the enemies. I'm hoping the next event is better organized, because there's way to much poo poo going on in this.

if you like Galaxy of Heroes, Marvel Strike Force which is in beta test in at least Canada and NZ that I know if. The roster isn't very deep, but as I said, its still in beta.

There’s 2 weeks left in this event and all the characters are already out. You weren’t really supposed to do it quickly, unless you had everyone unlocked already.

When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world Diabeetus.
The official release date of Marvel Strike Force will be 3/29 supposedly.

We already have a goon group if you would like to join Groot Squad.

It's very very similar to Avengers Alliance from the old facebook days, so if you like that, come one, come all!

Currently it doesn't seem as brutal as GoH, and it doesn't have as many Waifus as FF.

But yea, we'll get a level cap increase to 60 and more hero shards in nodes. I also hope more characters are added, to solve the problem above.

Is this one of those games where the guid ( or Alliance in this case) need to be leveled up to add more people? Or does another guild need to be made? I noticed you guys are full.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Guilds aren't fully implemented right now, so it'll probably eventually be a leveling thing but right now seems static.

It's 24 people and no more (this is the exact number of people who can participate in the current max level raid).

If the higher level raids are bigger when they implement them, we'll get an increase but I suspect it's going to stay at the 24.

Marvel Strike Force has to have some of the worst bio drop rates of any of these style of games I've tried. 10 attempts to get 4 Elektra shards and.....nothing. Nice

I've seen that, then got 8 shards on the next batch of 5, I think it's swingier because you get 2 shards instead of 1.

That is seriously brutal. Its almost not worth trying to get shards from regular battles, just the heroic ones, and the pvp reward chests.

Not a big dc fan

Whaled hard on Marvel Future Fight and had a non whale account. That game really helped new players. They also had WAY more in the game when I joined so waiting to see how this game shakes out

Everyone I farmed when I was starting is either now not farmable or in a totally different place.

IN future fight I just get the tony stark stash, and when there are characters I want I grab the bio subscriptions.

Should I spend all my power cores and raid currency on Character Orbs? I'm never going to whale. I just like super heroes and want them. Talk me down from this ledge.

There's a decent thread in games for Strike Force, it has a link to the discord which is where the real talk happens.

Spend your power cores how you want, but there really isn't anything but resetting nodes and buying orbs. Nodes resets are the best bang for your buck though.

Well, I mean she is farmable though the Arena currency, I got her to 4 through that. Yondu and Punisher are good, and easy to farm, characters.

Of course after I get pissed off that i delete the app. But then I'd not get the character because I haven't completely a single event since the changeover.

I can’t imagine how they expect anyone to get into Academy now. I don’t think I’ve gotten past the first map on any of these events, and I’ve already had most of the characters ranked up.
